Okay so the hole in the lifesaver is .278”
Means the margin of error for a .224” rim fire is going to be smallish
It means you are going to break a lot of lifesavers unless you can consistently shoot a .034" group

What about cutting a slot in a board to stand the lifesavers up in? You come glue a lot of life savers on a three foot board. like this clay target stand
Chuck the life savers in a lathe and bore them out a bit. That or just throw the shot a foot to the side and say you did it!! jk
You could also make something like a cardboard version of the Connect Four game, sized to the lifesavers (quoted the above, since it put the idea in my head). Wouldn't have to be full size, but a cardboard frame to hold it in place might be easier to work with, disposable, and more resistant than the candy itself to whatever attachment method you have for putting on something else (ie, glue/staple/clamp the cardboard down while leaving the candy freestanding).
A mini maglight lens is 22 mm dia, which places it between the OD of the lifesaver (30mm) and the ID of the center you're trying to shoot through (7-10 mm) - that would make a good template for running an exacto knife around.

This one doesn’t seem to be a piece of trash like the last one
